Apache bogged down

[welch]

On my server, something is accessing apache 24/7. I can not find the process doing it. Under the logs I get the following:

127.0.0.1 - - [18/Sep/2006:20:45:18 -0500] "GET /?51 HTTP/1.0" 404 - "-" "-"

Does anybody have any idea what could be doing this? I have mod evasive on apache to block things like this, but since it is from the server itself, I am lost.

Same here!

I have this problem since I updated yesterday from apache 2.0.59 to 2.2.4

Currently trying to figure out what causes this.

That was happening on a test server I had. I started removing item by item and found it was caused by a poorly written script (PHP).
